[QUOTE="Tau, post: 1191500, member: 95866"] Eland in different areas also differ in size. I am talking Cape Eland here and not Lord Derby Eland that is found in Central African countries. The biggest I can say with certainty is 450kg clean carcass. No skin,head, legs, head and gutted. So a clean carcass. My biggest was 385 kg. So a 1000kg + animal does exist and more. The family groups can be very large in reserves or farms that can support large numbers of Eland. The North of Namibia is my favorite area to hunt them. The thicker trees and shrub area make it a challenge. I have not hunted them in the North of South Africa, but it will also be good hard hunting. They are highly adaptable animals and can be found in the Kalahari desert and the thick Bush veld of Mozambique and Zambia. They can move vast distances between watering points. They are mixed feeders and focusing on only one area to hunt them will be futile. [/QUOTE]
